Good News Bad News

Over the course of the past year or so, the following TV series has kept me at the edge of my seat, well, maybe some more than others. It has come to the point where, some of them have excellent stories, and some of them are so bad, you even wonder how they managed to secure an entire season of crappiness!

Well, here at last are the updates on whether or not some the TV series will be picked up for yet another season and well, I am rather happy with the results...

TV Series Renewed For Another Season,
All good and worthwhile following!



TV Series That Has Been CANCELLED,
probably due to poor ratings or
terrible plots over the past year (YAY!!)



I was a little disappointed with FlashForward being cancelled, it showed premise, but then again, how long can a series featuring flash-forwards carry on? If Lost is wrapping up the series, then I don't see why TV needs another different version of Lost on the airwaves!

Heroes was long-expected to be cancelled, the ratings for this series has been plummetting since mid-way through season 3, after all the original heroes lost their powers. I was all for it to be cancelled by then, as the plots were full of holes and confusing, with all the jumping back and forth in the timelines, I got super headaches! I'm really not sorry that Heroes got cancelled, in fact, I'm rather delighted that it will be gone!
